'Baby, you are an inspiration'- Noah Lyles defends girlfriend Junelle Bromfield amid cyberbullying storm
Olympic men's 100m champion Noah Lyles has defended girlfriend Junelle Bromfield against cyberbullying related to their relationship during the Paris Games.
Despite her achievements, including a silver medal at the 2022 World Championships and a bronze at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in the 4x400m relay, her personal life has unfortunately attracted unwelcome scrutiny and hostility.
In her latest Instagram video, Bromfield chose to focus on positivity and empowerment.
"Black is beautiful, that’s facts. Black sensation from the Black nation. Black generation, admiration. I am a proud representation," the lyrics of the song 'Mirror' resonate with her message of embracing one’s identity proudly and defiantly.
"I could go off ranting but I'm just here to tell all the girls/women on my profile that you're beautiful no matter your shade, shape or size, and for the little Black girls don't wait on anybody to tell you that you're beautiful to believe it," Bromfield expressed in her previous post.
